What? You still play video games?How are you dealing with this?
>Video games make more money than movies these days you know!
>What? You're still sucking cocks of random men at 30 instead of getting married and creating a family?
>>321175608
>movies can be intellectual, mature and deep
>video games resort to shooting people, zombies, super mario and if anything puzzles
The only bigger industries than video games are broadcast and cable tv. It's abnormal to NOT play video games.
I pretty much only talk to people my age, who all have at least a passing familiarity with video games, or people my parent's age, who are gen xers in pretty much the same boat
By living in a fantasy land on the side.
>>321175764
An equal portion of movies are about shooting people and zombies, too
>>321175698
>Wow anon, I'm infertile.
>>321175973
an equal portion are also about Super Mario.
>>321175487
I stopped giving a shit more than twenty years ago.
I do what I want, when I want, and for whatever reason I want. If you don't like it, you can fuck right off.
Video games are old news.
Now it's all about Netflix.
>Anon! Did you watch Jessica Jones too?
>Y-You thought it was terrible?
>Wow, you're so dashing and well-informed with your opinions
>You're like stag that can't be tamed... I need you Anonymous...
>HARDER! TELL ME ALL ABOUT THE TERRIBLE CHARACTER BUILDUP IN THE FORCE AWAKENS WHILE YOU RAVAGE ME
>>321175487
Real simple. I don't play videogames
>>321175487
>"Yeah"
>>321175487
Video games are a generally accepted media now. People don't give a fuck. It's only weeb shit that creeps people out.
Having said that, why would I be talking to people about games anyway? I don't want to hear about how much they love CoD or Skyrim.
>>321175487
>"Yes"
Wow that was hard.
I legit dont play vidya anymore
I played some hearthstone last night before bed
I played cod about a week ago when a friend came to visit for a couple days
Probably the most fun I've had with vidya recently was playing the SFV demo with said friend in game.
I just dont find time to put into them anymore. Cant be fucked. What little spare time I have outside of work, class, gym I spend either at societies, eating, playing music, shopping etc.
I can never find the time to sit down and say "Ok I can feel alright about not being productive for a couple hours". The only reason Im on here right now is because I dont have to leave for work for a while yet
I know you are but what am I?
Y-You too
>>321176589
>I legit dont play vidya anymore
>except for this example where I played a video game literally yesterday
>>321176589
>I legit dont play vidya anymore
>I played some hearthstone last night before bed
>I played cod about a week ago when a friend came to visit for a couple days
>>321175487
>How are you dealing with this?
I dont need to, because it never happensbecause I never speak to anyone.
>>321176589
>legit don't play vidya
>played hearthstone yesterday
>>321176875
I dont consider playing for an hour or two a week playing vidya. Not like it used to be, back in day with whole weekends dedicated to destroying a new game, playing something for 4 hours a night every night routinely
>implying I talk about games outside of the internet
I don't want to hear how much they enjoyed Fallout 4 and MGSV.
>>321175487
Please, games are so mainstream it hurts.
>not having a sperg lord buddy you can talk to about the newest video games you enjoyed in your free time
>>321178082
>enjoying videogames
>>321178176
sorry, didn't mean to trigger your sensitive, tight little ass
>tfw 3 captchas
>>321175487
Why are you faggots so insecure?
>>321178082
I have zero friends, How do you become friends with somebody you met online so you can play and talk about vidya together?
All mytwo or threeattempts resulted in exchanging silly links on Steam from time to time, each one of us wanting to play X game at a time when the other guy didnt want to, and eventually stopping communication.
>>321175487
That still happens? Isn't vidya accepted nowadays?
>>321175487
Yes. Is that a problem?
>>321178412
>online friends
Sorry, I never bothered with those since literally every time the same thing happened
>try out some new cool f2p
>play a bit pretty good game
>meet a nice guy, we play together now
>play a lot for about half a year daily if not longer
>guy starts asking questions about real life
>"uhhh i gotta go"
>never log on again
It's just weird but I've had this exact thing happen 3 times now
>>321178412
Go outside?
>>321178694
I go outside daily. Strangely enough, people dont approach me asking if I want to play and discuss video games.
>>321175487
Pretty fine...waymore pathetic is bitching all day every day about games on a chinese image board...im being serious here whats the fucking point?people here are really happy with this retarded decision?
>>321175487
I'm playing less and less videogames and working on developing my own game instead
>>321175487
I don't play video games. I annoy nerds on a forum about video games.
>>321178736
Well there's your problem. You gotta be the one to approach anon.
No one in 2015 gives a shit whether or not someone plays videogames. It's only an issue if playing videogames is the only thing you do.
I wouldn't want to date a chick that spends all of her time sitting inside knitting or whatever, I don't see why it would be absurd for a girl to not want to date a guy who does the same but with games.
>>321176018
Lmao and you're dissing me for my disabilities?
>>321178864
Dont listen to him, thats how I got arrested.
Yeah, Skyrim is the best isn't it?
>>321178329
Eww, I bet you play handhelds in public and act like it's okay.
>>321175487
I want to lick those teeth.
>>321179751
>not playing handhelds in public
I play pokemon mystery dungeon on the bus, better than the woman reading fifty shades of grey
>>321176589
>tfw I want to play vidya but I don't want to play anything until I upgrade my monitor and GPU
>>321175487
dat image reminds me of Silent Hill
>have like dozen of friends
>play vidya with them
>talk about vidya with them
>have days when we just sit down and play some couch coop games we happen to find on steam
It's awesome
>>321175487
I don't need to since nobody ever said that to me.
>>321180572
Oh god my dick.
>talking to people who don't like vidya
I think I found your problem.
>>321181738
This
You generally only talk about things people are interested in. I mean, why would you talk about things both you and the other don't like?
>>321176042
an equal portion are about animated animals too
>>321181841
>why would you talk about things both you and the other don't like?
Normies do this shit all the time and act surprised when you tell them you are not really interested in these things.
>>321180572
I would insult and tease him about playing kiddy toy shit until he forces himself upon me.
Then fellate him in peace while he plays.
>>321176314
Fuk u m8 Jessica Jones is great.
>>321182201
Well, sure. This actually happened to me a while ago. A friend of mine was talking about a wrestling match and I didn't know anything about it.
>But anon you SHOULD know about things that are out of your interests
I asked why and couldn't get an answer. I don't get people sometimes.
>>321178929
I would prefer a girl that spends all of her time inside, knitting than 99.9% of women.
She would be faithful, wouldn't expect unrealistic standards to be met and would never drag you to go do anything you wouldn't want to do.
It's basically a loyal sex slave that knits you cozy socks. Who doesn't want cozy socks?!
>Everybody you have ever met will be dead someday.
>>321182763
>i want to date a loser because i'm a loser too
>>321175487
What is there to deal with?
>>321183075
That makes her a loser? The fuck?
>>321183270
Not that guy but if your girl sits at home knitting all day, just what the shit can you engage her about?
A sex slave is not a girlfriend at all.
>>321183361
>>321183075
You're both fucking losers who're sitting on the /v/ section of fucking 4chan instead of hanging out with your perfect proactive out about town fantasy girlfirends.
How in the shit can you call his idea of a perfect girlfriend a loser when the closest you've come to a decent partner is your fleshlight/dildo?
>>321183860
>all of that cognitive dissonance and projection
>>321183860
How can you call our ideas shit when you don't even dare hold any ideas of your own because you acting above-others while waddling in the same shit makes you feel superior?
>3rd youngest in my generation
>can easily flip between adult conversations and kiddie conversations
>cousin's kids and my younger cousin are always interested in what games I have
What's the matter, OP? I always have the games that keep the littles occupied so the adults can cook/talk/shop uninterrupted. At this years Thanksgiving, my folks were able to actually have some serious conversations about our handful of family crisises without scaring the kids, because I had set up Mario Maker upstairs for them to play.
I learned the lesson of how to mix vidya with family when I was in middle school; what's y'all's excuse?
>>321183361
Maybe she likes knitting, what's wrong with that? It's the same as staying home all day and playing vidya. There is literally nothing wrong with hobbies.
>>321175487
I'm an adult and I pay my taxes
>>321176314
>ywn seduce a woman with only your knowledge of obscure entertainment media
Why must life hurt so much
>>321184181
Vidya is extremely versatile in its themes and content, knitting is a menial task people do usually while watching tv.
Theres nothing wrong with hobbies, theres a lot wrong with having only one while not even having a job.
I find even vidya as a sole hobby patheticAnd that makes me pathetic
>>321175487
Ha! Jokes on you, I don't talk to people
>>321184325
And what the fuck do you know about knitting?
>it's wrong to have only one hobby
The fuck? Who decides that? And why would you have other hobbies if there is already one you are very interested in? Just so you can say I do other things?
>not even having a job
Who cares if they have the money already.
>>321178694
>>321178864
FUCKING NORMALFAGS
LEAVE
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>321184693
Calm down mang, just think it through, single hobby, nothing else happening in their lives, you spend every waking moment together, add 5 years - what are you conversing about with this person?
How was your day?
Oh Like the last 2000.
Vidya is atleast varied and everychanging, knitting hasn't changed for hundreds of years.
Yes. And?
>>321184181
There's nothing wrong with indoor hobbies.
But if that's ALL you do then you become a person that is boring to be around. That was my original point.
>>321185013
>>321185039
Your hobbies don't define you as a person. If you seriously think they do, you got some problems.
>>321185294
What defines you as a person if all you do is sit at home all day and engage in your one hobby?
FUCK YOU BITCH REMEMBER THAT TIME YOU HAD AN ABORTION HAHAHA
YOU CANT KICK ME OUT IM LEAVING OF MY OWN ACCORD
>>321180572
>>321181630
>>321182352
How come this place got filled with literal faggots? You can drop the act already, the pretending to be gay meme is really old.
>>321185510
Drop what act?
>>321184181
>It's the same as staying home all day and playing vidya.
That was the original point, both are equally pathetic.
>>321185294
It's not the specific activity retard. It's sitting inside spending all of your time doing the same shit everyday.
It doesn't matter if you're a boring ass person who does nothing but play games, a boring ass person who does nothing but knit, a boring ass person who does nothing but watch TV, etc etc.
It's not an attractive quality and does define who you are.
>>321175487
Funny thing is I haven't heard something like that in YEARS and I work at a bank's IT department.
Nowadays everyone plays videogames.
>>321176314
I cringed, yet I was also amused.
>>321185734
Yeah this thread is like a blast from the past.
If anything you would be looked down upon for NOT playing the newest AAA titles
Atleast at my company, which is also IT
>>321175487
I don't give a single flying fuck.
>>321178416
Yeah, I don't know what backwards shithole is OP from.
Hell, you could totally reply "EVERYBODY fucking plays videogames nowadays, you're the weird one here!"
>>321176314
This post is so spot on it hurts.
I still need to watch Jessica Jones btw.And finish Daredevil too.
>>321185510
it's only natural progression that being devoid of female contact for so long will make you a little gay
I don't think a majority is actually gay, just so needy that they'd accept a man
>>321175487
You still watch TV?
>>321175487
>What? You DON'T? In this, the year two thousand and shiggity of diggity? Get with the times grandma.
>>321176018
Shouldn't have caught those womb-souring STDs, then.
>>321175487
I've never heard this in my life.
>>321186315
This. I do believe we have managed to address the issue by now.
>>321175487
I know a guy who is always working on his motorcycle. Like he pours money into this thing and somehow keeps fucking it up. It's his hobby I guess but it's not very constructive.
>>321186293
Yes. Grow up.
>>321182763
>so how was your day babe?
>pretty good just did more knitting and cleaned around the house
>got any plans for tomorrow?
>no just more knitting and cleaning
when someone only has one hobby and nothing else they do it makes for a boring conversation anon and sex is only good for so long as that can get boring too if its just the same stuff over and over again.
>>321186238
Can't deny those points.
Though I spent the last 5 years among many women at work/workplace outings
Men are just better and I doubt any man will disagree even if they are straight.
>>321186890
Welcome to life.
>>321187040
but when thats all they talk about since the start of the relationship that shit gets boring bro.
>>321187040
that's not life, kiddo.
Or if your life is like that, quit. Or have a child, that is the same.
>>321187189
Don't have a child.
He'll just end up like you and me.
>>321184084
> he's right about me being a loser
> better accuse him of projecting
>>321186942
Women nowadays either don't know what the fuck to be or they think they know. Men are in a similar situatiom but yet they still fight to find out and you can tell. I think that's part of the reason it's comfier to be around a guy regardless of if you're a guy or another girl.
Hell, most cool women prefer having male friends than female ones.
I wake up
since because I only ever talks to women in the dreams
>>321175487
>How are you dealing with this?
By playing games.
>>321175487
>have hardly played video games since 2012
>have no hobbies
>don't go to school
>don't work
>literally keep re-listening to the same songs as I refresh the same websites (mostly /v/) over and over expecting things to change
I might be the most uneventful faggot ever. I have no friends, nothing. I just sit here shitposting and listening to shit music over and over everyday. Browsing /v/ has replaced playing video games.
Makes me resent normies even more. But then a lot of people who consider themselves not normal, they have lots of other hobbies, even if they are strange.
i've never got this videogames-taboo anyways. where i live, pretty much everyone likes vidya - boys and girls. you even see people playing 3DS in public everywhere here, even though i see 4chan labels it as cringey, it seems more of a social normie thing where i live.
>>321185608
>>321185510
the only thing i`m dropping is the soap
>>321187469
Yeah, women seem to be completely fine being aimless, driveless and devoid of any interesting or even just enthusiastic hobbies and such.
Men either have atleast one of those or become depressed as fuck.
>>321175487
Never happens, the people you talk or live with must have problems, anon.
Doesn't happen where I live
>americlaps
How do you justify staying in that country?
>>321175487
The only people I've seen say this were from a generation before games existed.
>>321187570
maybe a job would help although you sound too pessimestic for anything
like you`ll prolly just say that you`ve already tried that once, people like you refuse to try things more than once
>>321187869
Have you seen some of the replies? When people are RPing themselves defending their hobby against a fictional person that they made up in their head, it's safe to say most of this thread has problems.
>>321184084
No actual answer.
Green text and two things that have nothing to do with what I said.
I can ignore you.
>>321184115
Isn't that what you're doing to that other poster?
>>321187957
Oh yeah. I guess really old people still seem to say this from time to time but you can just discard their opinion because they're disconnected from the current times.
My experience is the ugly women don't like games, and the beautiful women love them.
>>321187281
damn... no......
>>321175487
I want to kiss those lips so badly
And then put my dick in it
I don't give a fuck. You'll all reach that point eventually. For me it was when I became 22. I honestly couldn't care less about the opinions of others outside my social circle.
>>321175487
>you still watch movies
>you still do *any form of entertainment*
>>321176018
You too good to adopt, bitch? It ain't bad enough those poor kids' parents didn't want them but now you're rejecting them too?
>>321175764
>>movies can be intellectual, mature and deep
Sure, mate.
>>321175487
Is it weird that that pic instantly reminded me of Lisa's smile from Silent Hill?
I haven't even played that game
>>321181307
Glad I'm not the only one
>>321175487
I dont because it doesnt happen. Almost everyone I know plays video games regularly. Even "normies"
>>321188374
>Seems to be a hot woman playing vidya
Who is that?
>Retarded photography skills
m8
>>321175487
Of course. Why wouldn't I be?
[If...]
>Aren't computer games for children?
[Then...]
What, you let your kids play Grand Theft Auto?
[If...]
>Computer games are a waste of time.
[Then...]
You watch television. Coronation Street and Strictly Come Dancing - that's a good use of your time, right?
[If...]
>You should get a real hobby.
[Then...]
I'm sorry, my worldwide multi billion pound favourite medium doesn't count, but passively watching a film does?
[If...]
>Why don't you read a book?
[Then...]
I read plenty of books; just because I play computer games, it doesn't mean I don't read. You, however - why don't YOU read a book?I haven't encountered any of these scenarios since 2007.
